I do agree that it would be nice to get rid of all massgis: tags,
including way_id and similar keys (doubt anyone will ever be able to
use those for anything useful at this point).

Greg brings up a good point, though, that we may want to fix a few
obvious issues from the import while we still can. The width is a good
example (I think we just need to add ft as the unit where it has been
untouched) but there are probably other examples where we need to use
the massgis tags.

+1 for the addressing layer, btw, but that's probably a whole separate project.
